This is my second one. We have it outside the garage door exposed to the elements yearound kzread.infoUgkxreK_FUQ74_bylFqCr3y2MHqL3u78-b3r Direct sunlight deteriorated the plastic on the thermostat and severe winds blew the lid off. We found it about an acre away. I bought a new one and I saved the good parts from the old one as spares. Got about 8 years out of the first one.

you have such a great bubbly personality. Love your reviews.

I have the Ninja Foodi and love it. When the Foodi grill first came out, I purchased it. I used it a couple of times and didn't see the advantage of air frying using the grill versus the Foodi. I didn't like cleaning the heavy grill either, so I returned it. I don't miss it at all. I have a digital thermometer to manually check food temp, but I like using wireless probes to cook meat and chicken, which works great. (I also have wired probes but don't like messing with the wires.) I bluetooth/pair the probes with my phone and use my phone to enter the cooking settings. This is great when I am away from the Foodi, as I can monitor the cooking temp on my phone. I have the Meater probes, which are available on Amazon. I am new to your cooking channel and love watching it. Your reviews are honest and your cooking tips are very beneficial. Thank you so much.

Great review. I love my Foodi Grill and use it much more frequently thank I did my other air fryers. High and max are the only two settings I’ve used. Steaks, chops, shrimp and chicken as well as veggies come out great. Thank you again for a terrific review.

I have COPD and could not use the BBQ anymore because of the smoke, this unit came to my rescue. It is great when you live in a condo up here in Canada and you can use it year round. I leave mine on the counter and simply slide it under the stove fan just in case, certain food do create a little smoke. Great idea with the wood chips and the liquid smoke, thank you and congrats on another great review. I have tried quite a few thing but can't wait to try a whole spatchcock chicken.

Thanks for sharing your very thorough review and demo. I just got the XL version and I LOVE it. 🍃🌺🍃

I love my Ninja XL. I have cooked so much with it and everything turned out great. Food is flavorful and it retains juices. I'm amazed how quickly dinner can be ready.

I love the story about 4 year old Urvashi!!! and with you on being able to grill outside in Texas most of the year. Though right now we don't even want to venture outside how hot it is. Waving hi from Austin!

Thank you for the wonderful review of the Ninja. Just ordered mine. Going to try some egg rolls and fries. Looking into picking up your cookbooks as I do need real food as well :)

This lady rocks! Made me laugh also. Keep up the good work!

TwoSleevers - THANKS for demonstrating the smaller grill with the Probe, there’s not many videos for this version. A lot of reviews say that the smaller grill heats better than the XL version with the probe. BTW, people eat with their eyes so that’s probably why we want to achieve grill marks on our food! 😊

Could you test the air fryer function and other functions, I would like to see how it performs because I am thinking of purchasing this but want to make sure the other functions work well too.

This is the pro model I would not pay an extra $100 for that probe. Just get a fast read meat thermometer

Best review on you tube on this unit

Great review video! This answered all of my questions about the Ninja Foodi Grill. I think I'm going to check out something smaller. Maybe the G. Foreman Grill.

Thank you for this review!

Great review thanks. My tummy can’t handle Smokey or charcoal so what you explained about how it affects taste was useful.

Awesome video...I love mine ...thank you for sharing ♥️

Great information. Thanks

I just bought one of those and have used it twice to grill steak. I only eat meats, so this is why I bought this unit as the temperature goes higher than the Cosori Air fryer I was using for steaks. Well... it was instant regret because of the way it smokes up the whole kitchen with strong smell and makes the air hard to breathe... I had the fan over my cook stove on high while grilling but it did not help. Now I am not sure I will use it. I don't have an air fryer now because the Cosori air fryers I had have been recalled and it is taking forever for replacements to arrive. I will probably have to buy another air fryer before I get the Cosori replacements.

Costco has this for 140.00

What’s the MODEL # of this grill in Costco? The Costco version has the doneness level displayed at the top of the screen. Example: Rare, Med Rare, Med Well, etc. The version she has looks just like the Model# AG400 that’s shown on the Ninja & Amazon sites. It doesn’t give her the option to choose Medium Rare, Well Done, etc.

In all the reviews I have read and watched, nobody seems to comment about how well the non-stick grill is. Could you please tell me if it works really well? Did you have to hard-scrape food particles off the non-stick grill after cooking? Does the non-stick coating peel off easily? Would appreciate some feedback.

I wish someone had told me on the ninja foodie XL that you can’t choose things unless you have the darn thermometer plugged in. I have one for my oven my wall up and I never use it so I didn’t figure I needed it for this all the time but you can’t choose what kind of meat you wanna do without the thermometer plugged in you have to use it you just have to plug it in

I'm indecisive about getting this one or a regular Cosori Air Fryer. The price is no issue. Which one should I get?

Can you please do a review of the Cosori grill?

Oh wow! You finally reviewed it! I was wondering if you ever would get to that. I know you have so many things to review. (Promise not being snarky with that comment. Honestly I know you're busy!) I have this and I absolutely love mine. It works for me because I am an apartment dweller and need to grill inside. Plus I had not gotten an air fryer yet. So this works out well for that too. I really was interested in your thoughts. I hope you're doing well. 😊

I almost bought one of these. Thank you for saving me $250. I'll stick to my Smokerless Grill : )

Thank you, for this review. I'm interested. How tall is it with the lid open? I don't have an island in my kitchen, so it would have to sit on the counter under the upper cupboard.

I did something similar with a cigarette lighter in a car when I was 4. It stopped glowing red so obviously it's cold now right?

I wonder how well it grills steak. Also, can you put a whole chicken inside?

@Twosleevers

4 жыл бұрын

It does a great job with steak. People in my Facebook group have posted those. You couldn’t fit a whole chicken in one piece. But if you cut it in half I suspect a 3 lb one could fit.

You explain things well but why wouldn't you demonstrate a steak or a more expensive protein? I bought this a Ninja 5-1 today, my partner is Muslim and doesn't eat pork...I would like to see a demonstration on Kebobs or Steaks, etc...You explain things well!

Omg where in Texas does she live?!?!?!

Could you do a review on a PowerXL air fry grill combo?

I really like your videos, thank you...you explain every detail which is important at the time to buy an appliance and I always look out to see if you have a video done before buying something. Now, having said that, this video has me worried because it's as if you put the video at high speed and it seems that you are lacking enough air to breathe and you are in a hurry as not having enough time to do the video and need to tell everything in 1 minute. It kind of makes me nervous...but It would be selfish of me to think how I feel about the video without focusing in you and your health. This video is from last year, so I do hope that you are feeling way better today...I also haven't seen any videos done recently which makes me wonder why...I do hope you are ok...thank you again!

What brand are those pot holder mitts that you use at the end of your video. I’m looking for something reliable and flexible. Most of what I’m seeming are very rigid. I also have fairly small hands and most mitts are way too big for me. The ones you use seem to fit my criteria for flexible and small. Thanks

Sorry pals, a learning curve- you can use it without the temp probe.

I agree! It looks just like the AG400 that’s shown on the Ninja & Amazon sites. But her button says “Temp IQ” instead of “Probe”. So many models, very difficult to choose lol 😂

It deserves more praise than you gave it, at over 500 degrees it is the hottest indoor grill and air fryer on the market yet has enough temp range to slow cook. It's sears better and cooks faster than anything else in its class. I'm completely shocked that you missed these attributes or felt them unimportant. This is why so many manufacturers put performance at the bottom of their list thinking people would rather have what is trendy than what actually works. Sadly it seems they are right.
